The GEnx engine represents a giant leap forward in propulsion technology. Using new generation materials and design processes to reduce weight, improve performance and lower the need for maintenance, the engines consume 15 percent less fuel than the engine it replaces making it both economically and environmentally sound. It is also the world's first commercial jet engine with a fan case and other parts made of carbon fiber composites, which are both more durable and easier to maintain than previous engines.
